they came to Falkirk and played in the martell. Captain sensible was dressed as a st trinian and he rolled abot the floor (he had green y fronts on). The little wall to keep us away from band got knocked down when smash it up was played. My friend was a bouncer and we got to have a drink in their dressing room after show. Dave vanian was lovely. I told him i'd loved him for years and he put his arm round me. Captain sensible gave me his autograph and wrote " bet yo didn't know i do theme tune for the big break. well you do now".best night of my life

My best experience was winning the Captain Sensible competition on Saturday Superstore when I won a book of Captain Sensible stuff including his red beret and sunglasses, records and loads of other stuff including a concertina!
I was over the moon when Kim Wilde read out my name as the winner and even more chuffed when the box of stuff turned up on my doorstep!
What an achievement to win out of all those entries, but it just goes to show it is no fix real people do win!

In 1997 my son and I were on our way back from the lake district and stopped at Gretna Services. Standing next to us in the queue for coffee was captain sensible. I turned to my (17 year old) son and said, do you know who that is, it's captain sensible! My son found it absurd that that anyone could have such a name. The Captain turned round to speak to us and he could not have been more pleasant. He bought a coffee and a croissant, as I remember.

haven't really got one- my boyfriend at the time was in a group supporting the Damned - playing at the PSV club in Hulme (forerunner of Factory), We all arrived early and waited and waited when they didn't turn up our band set up for a sound check - only to have the Damned turn up, take one look at the stage, say "What's all that ****? Clear the stage". Captain Sensible was set up - checked his bass found it out of tune, called for someone to re tune it for him. At this point I lost interest and wandered off to the loo. I'd put a choice word in here but it'd be starred out - suffice to say - in my opinion a bunch of piss taking Wankers
